    "description": "The first drip infusion of a drug or fluid into a vein for treatment, prevention, or diagnosis, covering up to about an hour of infusion time. It takes in starting the line, assessing the patient, preparing and hanging the bag, and monitoring during the infusion. Only one substance in an encounter is treated as the initial one - later drugs and extra hours in the same visit are recorded with their own companion codes. Chemotherapy and similarly complex biologic infusions are recorded under a different family instead.",
